PGM Impact 1

This is the Charlton variant printing (white logo instead of yellow), lower print quality ...

Comic Connect's response was mildly terse but understandable - they only deal in original comic art and comic books (not newspaper) ... they recommended I ask an Antiquarian!!!

Calling all Antiquarians!!!!  Calling all Antiquarians!!!

Well, Stephen ... the conversation has started!!!

A little bit of online reading (reliable?) suggests that plot lines in the strips were different than those in the books ... for example, one source I read indicated Sup marries Lois Lane in the strips ... what I think is way cool is that the 135 is 4 years removed from Action 1, and Siegel and Shuster's names are there ... 

These pics are from the other side of the Sup 46 ... Tracy, and likely the paper from which they came ... as well as a pic from the 72 ... date provenance?

Yes ... seems to be ... I think that origin strip comes from 1942 ... I have 18 in total, dating back to 1940 ... 

Odd ... wouldn't allow me to type the word in without spaces in between the letters ... the powers that be have Gulagged that word?

Trying to type in the word D E M O C R A T!!!

Sorry ... the ?

I don't have any strips but I do have this 1940 pinback button advertising his up coming run in a west coast newspaper.

What city had as its paper "The "?  Cool pin

Here's a few pics ...

Can anyone provide some background to the Superman Comic strips of the early 1940's?  I have come across a few ...

I'd say 7.0-7.5 ish ... might be a little harsh ...

I think in the 9.2-9.4-ish range ... didn't notice anything major (but then again, I only made it to the round of 64 in the grading tournament, and that was after a bye!!!) ... nice book ... my copy looks similar in condition ...

Looks 0.8-1.0, 'apparently' ...

Are you kidding me ? Why in the hell do you have full size giant pics of two Silver Surfer books in your sigline. Don't you think that's a tad much? Can't you shrink them down.

Oakman ... apologies ... probably my lack of knowledge re. size of pics as we transitioned to the new boards ... will work on fixing ... all the best in the tournament ...

Grades in ...

Surprised if it makes 5.0 ... 4.0-4.5 ish ...

Has a shot at an 8.0 ... pressing candidate?

If only grades were based on front covers ... that back cover brings it in the 3.0-3.5 range ...

Iif the tear is not there ... 6.5 ... otherwise, I'd agree with the 6.0 ...

Some spine action happening to the right of Joe's head?  Beautiful book ... 7.0ish ...

Fox ... pick up the rights to Shanna!!!

Another beaut from Sunday's haul ...

Picked up a collection last Sunday; these were some of the books found ...

Was there ever any resolution on whether the $5.99 price was a Canadian variant of the New Mutants graphic novel #4?
